Flashing green light - a signal of a crisis in American comics?

Looking at the poster, I thought this "Green Lantern" was very handsome, but after watching it, I found out that the film needs a plot but no plot, no acting skills, and special effects. The ugly, the stupid, the second, the characters have no character at all. Worst of all, the audience was expecting a good fight scene, but the film was so long before the final battle was fleeting like a shooting star. Moreover, the battle between the protagonist and the enemy is too routine, and it does not show a bit of the hero's ability characteristics. It has to be said that it is extremely disappointing.

Look at the recent film adaptations of American comics, from "X-Men - First World War" to "Thor", to Shield Brother "Captain America", to this "Green Lantern", and the future "The Avengers", I feel that the mass production of American comic hero movies is incessant, but the increase in quantity has not brought about an increase in quality, but a continuous decline, which has to make people worry about the future of American comic hero movies . How should American comic hero movies go down the road of adaptation? I think we should refer to the previous "Spider-Man", the classic "Batman Prequel" series in the classics, and then to the "King Bian King" that subverts the traditional hero movie model. , from trying to shape the characteristics of the characters, to enriching the connotation and meaning of the story, and finally adding the subversion of the traditional story mode, maybe these elements are the direction that American comic hero movies should choose to expand in the future, rather than one by one now, redundant and redundant Bland, nothing new, a simple business model that simply increases volume.

Needless to say, "Batman Prequel 3" will be released in the future. I believe that Nolan will not let me down. As for "The Avengers", personally not optimistic.

    The styling is too ridiculous

    Ten times higher sincerity than "The Green Hornet" + less than one-tenth of the execution power of "Star Trek"; Miss Blake Lively, who is completely out of play, is so cute that she poses and reads her lines! Add one star!
